The farmers' protest over India's new farm laws - the Farmers’ Produce Trade and Commerce (Promotion and Facilitation) Act, the Essential Commodities (Amendment) Act, and The Farmers (Empowerment and Protection) Agreement on Price Assurance and Farm Services Act - continued to hog headlines on Friday as the 11th round of talks between the two parties - farmers and Centre - remained inconclusive.

According to the findings of the Mood of the Nation poll, 80 per cent of the respondents said they were satisfied with the central government’s handling of the issue, while 16 per cent expressed unhappiness.
